IMPROVEMENT IN PAINTERS' STRIPING IMPLEMENTS.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 133,163,6lated November19, 1872.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that we, DANIEL LYDON and CHARLES HALSEY, of San Franciscocity and State of California, have invented an Improved PaintersStriping Implement; and we do hereby declare the following descriptionand accompanying drawing are sufficient to enable any person skilled inthe art or science to which it most nearly appertains to make and useour said invention or improvement without further invention orexperiment.

Our invention relates to a tool or implement for stripingfreshly-painted surfaces; and it consists principally of a small wheelor roll er, which has a milled edge, and a small box, which is properlyplaced to receive the paint which is taken up by the wheel.

In order to more fully illustrate and explain our invention, referenceis had to the accompanying drawing forming a part of this specification,in which- Figure -1 is a side view of the device, and Fig. 2 is an endview.

A is a handle of any suitable kind, but we prefer to use a hollowmeta-1' handle. Into one end of this handle a metal end piece, I), issecured, and this end piece is so constructed that a portion of it willstand at an angle to the handle, as shown. The angular part is thendivided into two parts, and a small wheel,

0, is placed between them so as to revolve upon a small shaft whichpasses through its center bearing in the metal on each side. The edgeorface of this wheel is milled. Directlyabove the wheel is a small metalbox or wiper, 01, the under side of which is slotted angularly, so thatthe upper portion or rim of the wheel will pass inside of the slot as itrevolves, or a friction-wheel can be used for this purpose.

For striping, the tool is taken in the hand after afresh coat of painthas been put on and the wheel rolled over the painted surface. Themilled rim of the wheel will take up the fresh paint and deposit it inthe box (I as it passes through the slot.

Having thus described our invention, what we claim, and desire to secureby Letters Patcut, is-- The striping implement for painters use,consisting of the handle A, angular end piece 1), wheel 0, with itsmilled rim, and the box or slotted wiper d, all constructed and arrangedsubstantially as above described.

In witness whereof we hereunto set our hands and seals.
